  • People who put their house number on their bin. Little Englander mentality. ‘That’s my bit of injection mounded plastic.’

  • Yeah, quite frustrating. Back in't student days, someone repeatedly nicked our bin. We had to nick one back from a different street and same numbered house each time. Went on for weeks. Fairly sure it was the same bin.

  • I put a wheelie bin bag in mine and so don't have to wash out the maggots too often. It's numbered so that I don't get my neighbour's which is always full of what seems like the contents of a thousand ashtrays.

  • When you’re surrounded by students it becomes a necessity. They just nick them when they move out as they always seem to throw the entire contents of the house away in the process.

    Does my head in. The house turns into an open skip for weeks afterwards.

    Trying to chuck fridges away by putting them by their bins, only for the rag and bone guys to come around, strip the compressors off, then leave the white box kicking around indefinitely.

  • My local council have sent round notification that bins are not to be left out in the street (health risk), and repeat offenders will face legal action, so I've put my number on mine just to avoid possible legal action, absolutely nothing to do with marking my moulded plastic territory.
